Gotcha Day Night

We headed out to the supermarket to get some snacks and milk. We started walking to first get something to eat, and lo and behold a block away was a Papa Johns( no garlic sauce, but that was OK)!! We went and had cheese pizza and spin rolls, and it was very good. We ate with 2 other couples, the Pavlovec's (Bob/Coleen and their daughter) and the Packs (William/Robin and their son). The best part was when William ordered a large coke, cause he wanted to take some back to the room, and it came in a PITCHER. Then by the end of the dinner, Robin still had not received her bottled water, and they finally brought her out a pitcher of scalding hot water. There is still some language barriers to say the least.




We headed over to the supermarket and it was quite an experience. It was inside the 9 story mall area and very crowded. We finally headed back and Anna did great her first night, she only wimpered about 5 minutes and slept by me, and kicked me all night. But it was fine.
